I had 7 years under my belt (2001 - 2008) and thought I could drink “like a normal person” and for awhile I did until I didn’t. Last 18 months have been hell and finally hit rock bottom AGAIN last week. Now getting it back together - Day 5!
OP, we’re still here. Come on back. Our arms are open.
OP, we are here. I hated hearing about the grateful alcoholic, but I understand now. I relapsed 15 years ago, but will never forget that feeling. I had almost two years and my tolerance was right where I left it. My alcoholic was doing pushups waiting for my relapse. A drink never has made anything better long term. Still alcoholic, so self centered, but a little better every day. Apparently still arrogant too. Ugh. Humility is hard.
Thanks everyone. Sucks when everyone has a red ballon and you have a yellow one but then again the ones with red ones don’t wake up on a bench alongside the Thames river in suit and tie leaning up against a homeless person. Not sure what Day 7 has in store but so long as I just don’t drink, it will likely be good
Did you read R/GA?
@OP -- I've heard it said before that ad men helped Bill W. write the book. Also, it works, doesn't it? Welcome back.
Hope you’re doing well OP!
Did you relapse OP?
Probably one reason I still like going to meetings. The yellow balloon club. Never felt part of anything, always embarrassed and a bit off... Still a bit off but not embarrassed. Thank you for sharing on this thread it really has helped, especially around the holidays.
No Big Book - Bill W was the worst writer in the world 😂
